A former Army Ranger and struggling father turns to robbing McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs, earning him the nickname "Roofman." After escaping prison, he secretly lives inside a Toys “R” Us for six months, surviving undetected while planning his next move. But when he falls for a divorced mom drawn to his undeniable charm, his double life begins to unravel, setting off a compelling and suspenseful game of cat and mouse as his past closes in.

A disarmingly sweet tonal gearshift for director Derek Cianfrance, Roofman is shaggy as a narrative but expertly tailored to Channing Tatum's strengths as an eminently likable leading man.

An unbelievable true story that had to be told on film, Roofman features surprisingly funny, heartfelt performances that make it impossible not to root for its winsome conman hero.

'Roofman' features a unique premise, compelling performances by Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst, and plenty of on-screen chemistry. The film's mix of humor, drama, and real-life intrigue is appreciated. However, it faces criticism for pacing issues, uneven genre blending, and repetitive scenes. The romantic subplot is often viewed as a drag on the narrative. Despite these flaws, 'Roofman' is generally considered an enjoyable watch.
